Sam Asghari Files for Divorce from Britney Spears

The two had recently been seen without their wedding rings in public. In his own post on Instagram, Mr Asghari said: "After 6 years of love and commitment to each other my wife and I have decided to end our journey together. "We will hold onto the love and respect we have for each other and I wish her the best always." He added: "Asking for privacy seems rediculous [sic] so I will just ask for everyone including media to be kind and thoughtful."
